is raised.
5. Do not allow passengers to remain in the vehicle.

VEHICLE CARE 323
Caution (Continued)
magnesium, calcium, or sodium
chloride. These chlorides are used
on roads for conditions such as ice
and dust. Always wash the chrome
with soap and water after exposure.
Caution
To avoid surface damage, do not
use strong soaps, chemicals,
abrasive polishes, cleaners, brushes,
or cleaners that contain acid on
aluminum or chrome-plated wheels.
Use only approved cleaners. Also,
never drive a vehicle with
aluminum or chrome-plated wheels
through an automatic car wash that
uses silicone carbide tire cleaning
brushes. Damage could occur and
the repairs would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty.
Brake System
Visually inspect brake lines and hoses
for proper hook-up, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake
pads for wear and rotors for surface
condition. Inspect drum brake linings/
shoes for wear or cracks. Inspect all
other brake parts.
Steering, Suspension, and
Chassis Components
Visually inspect steering, suspension,
and chassis components for damaged,
loose, or missing parts or signs of
wear at least once a year.
Inspect power steering for proper
attachment, connections, binding,
leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
Visually check constant velocity joint
boots and axle seals for leaks.
For 1500 Series vehicles, at least every
other oil change lubricate the outer tie
rod ends.
Control arm ball joints on 1500 Series
vehicles are maintenance-free.
Caution
Lubrication of applicable steering/
suspension points should not be
done unless the temperature is
−12 °C (10 °F) or higher, or damage
could result.
Body Component Lubrication
Lubricate all key lock cylinders, hood
hinges, liftgate hinges, steel fuel door
hinge and power assist step hinges,
unless the components are plastic.
Applying silicone grease on
weatherstrips with a clean cloth will
make them last longer, seal better,
and not stick or squeak.
Underbody Maintenance
At least twice a year, spring and fall,
use plain water to flush any corrosive
materials from the underbody. Take
care to thoroughly clean any areas
where mud and other debris can
collect. If equipped with power assist
steps, extend them and then use a
high pressure wash to clean all joints
and gaps.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 335
‐Any vehicle consistently
operated in a high sand or dust
environment such as those used
on oil pipelines and similar
applications.
. Vehicles that are regularly used for
short trips of 6 kilometers or less
If your vehicle has an Oil Life
Indicator, the indicator will show
you when to change the oil and
filter. Under severe conditions the
indicator may come on before
10 000 km/6,000 mi. The indicator
won't detect dust in the oil, so if
you drive in a dusty area you may
have to change the oil and filter
sooner than every 10 000 km/
6,000 mi.
Note: All vehicles with rear-wheel
drive —change driveline axle oil
every 30 000 km/19,000 mi if
vehicle is used for towing
purposes.
* Footnote: Under extreme driving
conditions listed above, it may be
necessary to replace your spark
plugs at more frequent intervals.
For further assistance in
determining the most suitable service maintenance intervals for
your vehicle, please contact your
authorized GM Dealer.
